You have a frightening way of slipping in between the cracks and making me laugh, despite myself, against my will, beyond good reason.
Don't.
This can only end in disaster.

Late this afternoon, JR popped into my screen and told me Kurt Vonnegut was dead. I didn't really know Vonnegut; I only know of him vaguely... a writer, a writer good enough that fictional characters in books I have read talk of wanting to study under him. BB thought he only wrote profoundly incomprehensible stuff. But apparently he wrote this: Long Walk to Forever. And I think to myself, how come I haven't read him?!? It's like never having known... ee cummings' "Somewhere I have never travelled" or Neruda's Sonnet XVII.
Plus, he writes science fiction.
I have to find this guy's works.
